Get Bemba troops out of Kinshasa, Kabila tells UN
Source: Reuters
KINSHASA, Nov 22 (Reuters) - Congo President Joseph Kabila on Wednesday gave U.N. peacekeepers a 48-hour deadline to move an election rival's soldiers out of Kinshasa, or he will order the national army to do it, Congolese and U.N. officials said. They said the verbal ultimatum was given to the head of the U.N. mission in Congo. It followed a riot at the Supreme Court on Tuesday by supporters of Jean-Pierre Bemba, who has challenged provisional election results showing Kabila defeated him in an Oct. 29 presidential run-off vote.
